I pick neither option, reaching out to touch it with her.
"What is this...?" I whisper under my breath as I reach out.
This is probably class A shmuck bait, but if I can do it in Atlus games, I can do it here, besides, I've got love power on my side!

I raise a brow at the toilet with a curious expression. "Well, at least I don't have to piss in a corner..." I mutter as I notice the robe and grab it, throwing it on as I grab my clothes and start heading for the main floor.

Layla:
The moment the two of you touch the orb, it flashes bright red. The next thing you know, you see beams of light come out of the orb and create a series of lifelike images floating about several of the pedestals. They look like people. You have a bad feeling about these images, like it's a premonition...or a reminder...
"What is this?" Xiao asks. "It feels creepy...like a graveyard..."
Leina:
When you get out of the tower, you see that no one else seems to be in this area. When you go to the main floor, you find yourself alone again. You are currently in the west hall. You do not see a bathroom in this hall. Perhaps the main hall, then?

"Alright." I lead her to the beach.

I eventually get bored of wandering around the flat landscape. "Well, this is a bit dull... I suppose I should find some place to take a bath, or better yet, a shower, though I'm not seeing any good places to do that... but surely there must be a bath house inside the castle." I say to myself and then walk back inside the castle to search for a bath room or perhaps a bath house.

"Beh, I need to get some more money. Yo, you awake?" Mazurn said as he poked his pendant a couple of times. While doing that, he did that, he walked around to find the exit, and hopefully find a bounty board, or something that would help imiprove his skills while filling his pockets.

I decide to follow Nyx to the beach, after all water is also fun to play in! "Oh, you do realize that I don't have any clothes just like Layla right? So why did you yell at them, but not me?" I ask.

I look around the room, the omnious feel sending a chill down my spine. I try to make out what the figures are doing and look like, as to perhaps get a clue of what they are and what they mean.
"What is this...?"

Nyx & Sand-Claw:
As you leave, you see Apollo, Leina, and Mazurn wandering around. At the beach, Irene stands in awe of the vast ocean. You can't see anything beyond the island except water and the sky.
Apollo:
When you enter the main hall, you notice a staircase that you didn't notice before: it leads below the castle. It is marked:
B1F: Bathing Chamber
B2F: Armory
B3F: Dungeon
B4F:
You can't help but notice the odd lack of information about the fourth basement floor. However, the first one is the bathing chamber. Best bet as any, right?
Mazurn:
You do not see any such thing anywhere in the castle.
"Huh?" the pendant mutters. "What? Oh, it's you. You haven't jumped off a cliff YET?"
Layla:
Xiao looks around with sheer fright.
"I don't like this Layla..." she mumbles.
"Welcome to the Hall of Forgotten Memories," a mystical voice says, emanating from the orb you and Xiao are touching. "Here, the fallen shall be remembered forever. Those you see around you have perished and can never return to Ji'on."
"A graveyard..." Xiao mumbles.
She looks like she's about to faint. There are ten images of the dead.
"These were the first to fall to the Red Army incursion," the orb proclaims. "Fifty have perished within the last twenty-four hours. It is now eight o'clock A.M. on the first day of the fifth month of the one thousand three hundred thirteenth year of the Agreed Collective Calendar of the Earthly Kingdoms."
The time is the only thing that clicks with the real-world you, but the calendar clicks with the in-game you: May 1, 1313 ACC. You know that the date and time matches up, except the year in the real world is 2132. You have spent twenty-four hours in the game. You have about twenty-nine days before those that want to get out can no longer do so.

"Why is this in the hall...?" I mutter under my breath.
"Is this some kind of warning, perhaps..?" I continue on, musing out loud. Upon seeing Xiao's condition, I move behind her and hug her, to both try and give her comfort, but also to support her if she falls.
"You alright?" I ask her softly.

I shrug as I realize no one is around and continue on to the Main Hall in search of a place to clean myself....

I make a mental note to explore the B4F sometime, but for now I go to the B1F to check out the Bathing Chamber's facilities.

"No, I am not that stupid>" Mazurn said as he sighed. He decided to find a way to get to the guild hall and then to the town. But first, something to eat and drink. "Yo, I don't know if this might breach the contract, but I wanna ask some questions. First of al, What is your name, and What are you?" Mazurn said as he went in search of the kitchen, for some food and nourishment.

"WOO!" I shout, and run head long into the water, splashing an exessive ammount.

Layla:
"No..." Xiao murmurs. "I'm scared..."
She lets go of the orb. The images fade and the orb's light is reduced to the faint glow you saw from the stairs.
Leina:
When you enter the main hall, you notice a staircase that you didn't notice before: it leads below the castle. It is marked:
B1F: Bathing Chamber
B2F: Armory
B3F: Dungeon
B4F:
You can't help but notice the odd lack of information about the fourth basement floor. However, the first one is the bathing chamber. Best bet as any, right?
Apollo:
You find that it is a communal shower, separated into two sections: male on the right, female on the left.
Mazurn:
You are IN the guild hall.
"I have no name," the pendant says. "Why would I have a name? Names are useless. Individuality is overrated. I am a pendant. What do I look like, Swiss cheese?!"
Sand-Claw:
Irene giggles as she watches you splash around.
